1. A preparation method of a semiconductor device comprising the steps of: providing an inner lead frame with a plurality of chip mounting units, wherein each chip mounting unit comprises a plurality of inner pads with a plate arranged at a top surface of each inner pad close to one side edge; flipping and attaching a semiconductor chip on the top surface of each inner pad of the chip mounting unit with a plurality of electrodes on the front of the semiconductor chip electrically connected with the plurality of inner pads one-to-one, wherein the semiconductor chip and the plate are separated from each other; forming an inner plastic packaging layer covering the inner lead frame and plurality of semiconductor chips attached on the inner lead frame; grinding from the top surface of the inner plastic packaging layer and the back surface of the semiconductor chips until the top surface of the plate and the back surfaces of the thinned semiconductor chips exposing out of the inner plastic packaging layer; forming a metal layer to cover the top surface of the inner plastic packaging layer; cutting the metal layer into a plurality of top metal segments, each of which is in electrical contact with the top surface of each plate and the back surface of the thinned semiconductor chip respectively; cutting through the inner lead frame, the inner plastic packaging layer and the metal layer between the adjacent semiconductor chips to form a plurality of individual semiconductor devices; providing an outer lead frame comprising a plurality of interconnected units, wherein each interconnected unit comprises a plurality of outer pads; flipping and mounting the semiconductor device on the interconnected unit, wherein the plurality of top metal segments of each semiconductor device are respectively attached on the plurality of outer pads of each interconnected unit one-to-one; forming an outer plastic packaging process, covering the outer lead frame and the plurality of semiconductor devices attached on the outer lead frame, wherein the bottom surface of each outer pad is exposed out of the bottom surface of the outer plastic packaging layer; and cutting through the outer lead frame and the outer plastic packaging layer between the adjacent semiconductor devices to form a plurality of outer plastic packaging bodies, each of which covers an interconnected unit and a semiconductor device.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the inner plastic packaging layer covers the bottom surface of each inner pad of each chip mounting unit.

3

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the bottom surface of each inner pad of each chip mounting unit is exposed out of the bottom surface of the inner plastic packaging layer.

4

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein in the step of cutting the metal layer, the inner plastic packaging layer is cut along a cutting line to form a cutting groove in the inner plastic packaging layer.

5

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the bottom surface of each inner pad is exposed from the bottom surface of the inner plastic packaging layer; and wherein the respective bottom surfaces of the inner pads are exposed out of the top surface of the outer plastic packaging layer.

6

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the bottom surface of each inner pad is exposed from the bottom surface of the inner plastic packaging layer; and wherein the outer plastic packaging layer covers the bottom surface of each inner pad and the inner plastic packaging body.

7

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the inner plastic packaging layer covers the bottom surface of each inner pad; and wherein the outer plastic packaging layer covers the inner plastic packaging layer.

8

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the inner plastic packaging layer covers the bottom surface of each inner pad; and wherein the bottom surface of the inner plastic packaging layer is exposed from the top surface of the outer plastic packaging layer.
